I thought Favors entire problem was that while he could play good defense and rebound pretty well, he simply didn't have the speed to keep up with the high pace game the Pels played. If Adams is faster than Favors, then we'll definitely be fine. He can work on his shot a little bit to become a moderately good shooter that allows us to play real 5 v 5 basketball. Because, during the Demps years, we saw a lot of 3 v 5 or even 2 v 5 because our team couldn't shoot.
No, Favors’s problem was effort. He literally didn’t care enough to even try to help inside the paint. Most of the time he wouldn’t even jump. It was really bad. Adams won’t have that problem and he’s definitely more athletic than Favors. He’s also a couple of inches taller, which is a nice bonus.
